A landlord-built office in a Class A building, delivered fitted but typically minimally customised.

Full definition

Landlords build pre-built suites speculatively in trophy buildings to address smaller tenant demand efficiently. Typical size 2,500-7,500 sqft. Tenant takes on shorter notice, less customisation.

Why this matters for Class A leasing

Pre-built suite is part of the construction vocabulary that institutional Class A occupiers, landlords, and advisers use across US markets. Understanding it correctly affects how you read lease documents, model occupancy economics, and benchmark deal terms across cities. Class A Atlas tracks the US definition alongside the global standard so cross-border occupiers can translate quickly.
